Author: Charlotte Elliot, 1789-1871 Hymnal: Lead Me, Guide Me (2nd ed.) #632 (2012) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Promise of God First Line: Just as I am, without one plea Refrain First Line: O Lamb of God, I come! I come! Lyrics: 1 Just as I am, without one plea,
But that thy blood was shed for me,
And that thou bidd'st me come to thee,
O Lamb of God, I come! I come!
2 Just as I am, and waiting not
To rid my soul of one deep blot,
To thee whose blood can cleanse each spot,
O Lamb of God, I come! I come!
3 Just as I am, though tossed about
With many a conflict, many a doubt,
Fightings and fears within, without,
O Lamb of God, I come! I come!
4 Just as I am -- poor, wretched, blind;
Sight, riches, healing of the mind,
Yea, all I need in thee to find,
O Lamb of God, I come! I come!
5 Just as I am -- thou wilt receive,
Wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve,
Because thy promise I believe,
O Lamb of God, I come! I come!
